Biden and Trump to meet in the Oval Office on Wednesday, the White House says

In a speech Thursday, Biden said he had assured Trump he would direct his 'administration to work with (Trump's) team to ensure a peaceful and orderly transition'

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden will host President-elect Donald Trump for a traditional postelection meeting in the Oval Office on Wednesday, the White House said Saturday.

Such a meeting is customary between the outgoing president and the incoming president, and is meant partly to mark the start of a peaceful transfer of power under America’s democracy.
